Somehow I ended up mostly working on A.I semiotics, which would have been great if i had any passion for it. Luckily nearly everything I learnt will most likely be obsolete by now, so I gain some solace in knowing everyone wasted their time and not just me

The UK Government's position is that all of the following are essential:

* Completely open border between Northern Ireland and the Republic

* Completely open border between Northern Ireland and the rest of the UK

* No open border between the UK and the EU

And they don't see a problem with this.

Now before reading on, please take a moment to consider the apparent intelligence of the persons involved.

That said, is it possible they basically tried to engineer this situation as a catch 22 situation to trap the EU into, trying to force them to either accept an completely open border for goods or at least to leave an unofficial backdoor into the EU through the NI/Irish border?

A backdoor would do wonders for the NI economy. But its never gonna happen ofc.

The only time I want to know know what Tony Blair thinks, is when he's talking from the dock.

Sorry can someone explain why Steve Bannon is so important.... he did some time in the navy / VP of Vampire Squid / owner of a pissant right wing shitsite? why do poticians pay attention to him?

because rich cunt? cant just be it... plenty of other richer cunts out there.

He is currently constructed to be someone who has defined the modern alt right politics that has come to dominate the anglosphere over last two years. Cambridge analytica is as responsible for Trump as GRU or the stupid electoral college thingey. CA also can take credit for helping Brexit success.

It is obvious that quasileft mainstream politicians are deciding to bend the knee.
